Second Quilt

My second quilt is inspired by a Layer Cake package that I picked up at the Creativ Expressions Show a few weeks ago.  It features a Berenstein Bear Birthday theme.

I did this one in a Disappearing Nine Patch Pattern as well, but I cut the ten inch squares into five inch squares.  I liked it a lot better, but thought that it was so busy that the details in the fun and playful fabric got lost ... so I outlined each block with a red border.  The rest of the quilt just sort of grew from there.  

I machine quilted it myself on my wee machine and put the binding on as well.  The over-all effect of the quilt is wonderful, but I dread an experienced quilter to look at my first time quilting!
